told ya

I told you this correction
would tumble to perfection
and leave you low and soggy
on the bank of routed streams
while from the high ground there is me
a nerd with so much time to flee
my own advice superciliously
I almost fully took with me

except I could have sold the gold
so weep for all those scrips I hold
on allords I was slightly slow
but the correction! and I had to let you know
and it may have been better
had I stuck to the letter
of the grisly news
that came to bear
for I kept all the ones that slid away
and I sold those punts that would have saved the day

but I told you this correction
would tumble to perfection
and I had my say
okay
